December 6, 2023
Booze gifts make the best gifts, but sometimes shipping bottles can be a hassle. Here are some non-boozy gifts for cocktail lovers that you can either gift alone or send with a bottle of your giftee’s favorite spirit. We’ll start with All the cocktail tools they need to build a home bar.

Book Gifts for Cocktail Lovers
Doctors and Distillers by Camper English
Doctors and Distillers by Camper English is perfect for giftees who like to pair their booze with a little science, medicine, and history.
The 12 Bottle Bar by David Solmonson and Lesley Jacobs Solmonson
12 Bottle Bar shows you how to do more with less. It’s full of amazing classic recipes, and it will help your giftee make better drinks on a bit of a budget.
Cocktail Time! by Paul Feig
The impeccably dressed filmmaker Paul Feig came out with a cocktail book last year. It describes cocktails and drinking in the most charming, nostalgic terms and reading it will make your giftee feel like they’re stepping right into The Thin Man.
Disco Cube Cocktails by Leslie Kirchhoff
A book as pretty to look at as it is useful. It’s full of unique recipes, disco playlists, and the vibiest photography.
The Martini Cocktail
Prominent booze writer Robert Simonson delivers countless versions of the classic cocktail in this homage to the drink and explores why the details really matter in a cocktail that can sound deceptively simple. My favorite part of the work is the collection of excellent martini quotes in the back.
To Have and Have Another
To Have and Have Another is one of my all-time favorite cocktail books because while Hemingway isn’t role model material in a number of ways, he made booze sound more romantic than anyone. The author Philip Greene covers essentially every mention of drinking in both Hemingway’s books and in his personal life, so your giftee will have plenty of recipes to choose from.
Build-a-Bar Gifts for Cocktail Lovers
Give them the gift of improving their cocktails at home (which might ultimately be a good gift for you too). Here are the 10 essential cocktail tools they’ll need to make great cocktails at home.
5. Lemon & Lime Citrus Squeezers
Because when it comes to citrus, it has to be fresh.
9. Muddler
10. Cocktail Picks
Joanna Buchanan makes some extremely pretty ones like the ones pictured here, but you can also go with some simple classic cocktail picks like this 8-pack for $7.99 on Amazon.
